BOOM! Oh yeah, did I hit the ground running today! I didn't wake up this morning as much as I was catapulted from my bed by an explosion of incendiary wrath. My mood is foul, to say the least, and my heart is full of loathing and disgust for everything that calls itself *gag* "pro-life".

The source of my irritation this morning is something I read late last night. Everyone knows anti-choicers are liars... not "tend to be", not "sometimes", not "occasionally stretch the truth"... they're out-and-out, bald-faced, "lips-are-moving"-type liars. But sometimes their lies are so outrageous and insulting that even for them it's remarkable. Pro-choicers expect to be dumped on by these fetus fetishizing fuckwads; it doesn't bother us, and can in fact be amusing. But when they twist a tragic story and insult the families of victims, it chafes.

"Manon Jones, 18, from Caernarfon, Gwynedd fell ill after the surgery and admitted herself to hospital, where she died." [...]"The inquest on Thursday heard how Miss Jones, a Christian who had an active social life with the church, had decided to terminate her pregnancy because she had concerns for her boyfriend and his family who were Muslims.

Following the procedure, she went on holiday, despite medical advice not to.

She cut short her break after feeling ill and returned to Bristol, where she was a student, and admitted herself into Southmead Hospital.

Blood tests showed she needed a blood transfusion, however she was left waiting for the blood when another emergency broke out on the ward and her condition deteriorated resulting in her needing life support.

Post-mortem tests showed she died of low haemoglobin levels and shock caused by "retained products of conception" - the embryo."

Got that?Dumbfuck shits on the woman's grieving boyfriend with his sleazy insinuation of coercion, then engages in a little misogynist fantasy role-playing (I wonder how many times he came in his pants typing that bit about kicking the woman in the stomach). As always, there's the obligatory hysterical nod to pro-choice opposition to Bill C-484: "She's gotta die so I can have my freedom of choice". A supposed insult (yawn) based on fantasy, it's a little astonishing since Bill C-484 would have done nothing to prevent this woman's death (had she been Canadian). In fact, it might well have given her boyfriend a walk if he had been responsible for her death (as this brain-damaged douchebag seems to be suggesting). But imbeciles like this never let reality get in the way of a good explosion of blog-arrhea, do they?
